McClatchy correspondent Maria Recio sends in the following:
Perennial candidate Ralph Nader is reviving his "super rally" strategy to attract attention, right smack in the middle of the Democratic and Republican conventions.
On Wednesday, Aug. 27, Nader will hold a rally for 5,000-7,000 people at the University of Denver Magness Arena and on Sept. 4, he'll appear at the Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis during the week of the Republican National Convention.
National campaign coordinator Jason Kafoury said Nader is resuming the rallies, which were successful in 2000, "to protest the corporate control over our political system and to call for opening the presidential debates."
-- Maria Recio
Nader's rallies are just like his campaign. They're late and reactive (to the Dem and Rep).
(Oh, and they're anti-corporate)
With 4 years to think, he should get a better campaign.
He's not running to win, but for exposure of his issues.
